One foundation will be in Vietnam, Sữa Kun Cho Em, and the other foundation will be in Iowa, Sleep in Heavenly Peace. This show will be hosted on January 25, 2025 at Durham Great Hall from 6:00 PM to 9:00 PM. There will be food provided and performances by ISU students. Tickets will be on sale in November! Hope to see everyone there!
